With the levels, I was thinking that the person submitting the piece of music would be the one to say what level they are at. The assignments are not so the GT community can "judge" others.. but more give them feedback.. So a new participant who has never submitted a GT assignment before could just as easily submit at Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced. Still could only submit one piece and at one level but it would be the submitter choosing the level, not the community.

Of course, first we need some kind of participation level to warrant having levels... :)
